A retired California pastor has been caught on camera drawing a Swastika on his Jewish neighbor's groceries.
Leah Grossman confronted her neighbor, Mark Nakagawa, at 10.15pm on December 5, seconds after her doorbell camera caught him scrawling on a box of seltzer.
The single mother of two told CBS she was 'shattered' when she saw it was a Swastika, and asked him 'Is that a Nazi symbol?'
Nakagawa initially denied drawing the Swastika, but when confronted with the video evidence, claimed he was trying to teach her about the history of the symbol.
Grossman said it wasn't her first run-in with Nakagawa and claimed he had previously called her a fascist in a homeowners' meeting for hanging an Israeli flag from her balcony after the October 7 attacks.
Nakagawa was caught on camera drawing on a box of seltzer in Grossman's shopping on December 5
He initially denied drawing the symbol but later said he did it to teach her about its history as a Buddhist sign of peace
Speaking to CBS about the drawing, she said: 'I just fell to pieces. Like I've never shook like that before. My toes were shaking.
'I get emotional thinking about it because it reminds me of all the people I know, my family, my children.'
The incident was caught on her doorbell camera.

Bull crap like this and the hedonism the UMC pushes (and pretty much anything else written in the Democrat Doctrine Manual) is why a bunch of real Christian Methodists have moved their churches out of the UMC.
Why would anyone do that? What the hell is wrong with people?
The title “Pastor” implies practitioner and teacher of the Christian faith. Doubtful in this case.
I am have trouble trying to make excuses for this as the new time of Noah.
A few of us are left. I pray we will be spared.
Romans 3:10-12
“There is no one righteous, not even one; there is no one who understands; there is no one who seeks God. All have turned away, they have together become worthless; there is no one who does good, not even one.”
Is this the “Asian Hate” we are supposed to stop?
It’s a perfect storm of division though. The left will say this is how all Christians are. A perfect false flag event in a way.
Maybe he’s one of those Japanese soldiers who didn’t realize the war was over and is still fighting on behalf of the Axis?
What is this person’s major malfunction?
The Buddhist symbol is a mirror image of the Nazi symbol. I asked about it when I was in Asia and I was told that the Buddhist symbol is much older than the Nazis so they see no reason to change it.
“Speaking to CBS about the drawing, she said: ‘I just fell to pieces. Like I’ve never shook like that before. My toes were shaking.”
Seriously? Talk about over reacting. This guy is obviously an ahole so go ahead and report him for harassment but it appears she’s trying to elevate this to the level of a serious hate crime. Are they going to start arresting people for a hate crime for using the “n” word now? We are getting on a slippery slope where they are trying to make minor instances of harassment into a serious crime.
Besides everything else wrong with this, did he actually draw the Buddhist version, because the other swastikas are not like the hooked-cross of the Nazis. If he used the Nazi version, this makes even less sense.
These nuts have always been around. But in certain situations like this, they are revealed. It’s like what Warren Buffet says, when the tide is out, you can tell who has been skinny dipping.
There are all kinds of mentally and emotionally deranged people.
I sound an old (pre-30’s) Rudyard Kipling book in my high school library. It had a Hindu swastika as a logo, which I found out was a logo for all of Kipling’s books, because of his association with India. I don’t know when, but sometime they changed it, I assume in the 30’s.
Among certain groups, it’s cool to be an antisemite. Sick.
You’d think the Japanese guy would know about the history of internments of the Japanese and be sympathetic to the Jewish woman.
No surprises. I drive through a fairly liberal area of my city on the way to work every day. There is a liberal Methodist church, Unitarian church and Reform Jewish synagogue. Their message boards are constantly filled with messages like “Black Lives Matter” and “Hate Has No Home Here” and “We Stand with Ukraine.” They simply spout whatever the current liberal talking point is; rarely anything about God unless they twist it into a liberal talking point (my favorite was the Rainbow that God created after the Flood is symbolic of the Gay Pride Rainbow). So you end up with this obnoxious dope of a “reverend” painting swastikas just like we had “Rabbi” Hammerman claiming Christians would riot if Tim Tebow got into the Superbowl.
I was slightly wrong in my memory: Kipling books used a leftward facing swastika. He personally ordered it changed when the Nazi swastika started gaining attention. He reviled communists, and what he called, “Hitlerites.”
Why would Christians riot if Tim Tebow got in the Super Bowl? Why would Christians hate him that much?
